EGD CAD Course Outline
The objective of AutoCAD Essentials is to enable students to create a basic 2D Drawing in the AutoCAD software. Even at this fundamental level, the AutoCAD software is one of the most sophisticated computer applications that you are likely to encounter. Therefore, learning to use it can be challenging.
AutoCAD essentials covers the essential core topics for working with the AutoCAD software. The teaching strategy is to start with a few basic tools that enable the student to create and edit a simple drawing, and then continue to develop those tools. More advanced tools are also introduced throughout the training course.
This course is now available on our Online Learning Platform, meaning learning will still take place via a “Blended Learning Environment”, all from the comfort of your home.
In its simplest form, blended learning is a style of education in which students learn via electronic and online media as well as traditional face-to face teaching (which can be via videoconference such as zoom).
